SUMMARY:Online Buddhism in Society Discussion Series with Troy Williams
DESCRIPTION:Please join us on Saturday June 27th\, 10:00am to 11:30am for an online talk and Q&A session with Troy Williams as part of our Buddhism in Society Discussion Series. He will be reflecting on the situation in the country after George Floyd’s death and the Black Lives Matter movement.\n\n\nTroy was born in Chicago and grew up in LA. He became part of a gang as a teenager and was sent to prison when he was just 14. He joined the Buddhist Sangha at California’s San Quentin State Prison\, where he was incarcerated. He says the practice opened up a different world for him and completely transformed his life. \nTroy started a project called Restorative Media to help black men and women coming out of prison as well as young people at risk of going to jail. He has also worked with law enforcement officers to educate them about the importance of their interactions. \n\n“Buddhism in Society” aims to explore and understand how to bring the principles of awareness\, mindfulness and creative responses to difficult problems present in our communities.\n\nPlease Join us via Zoom:\n\nhttps://zoom.us/j/807694090 \nDuring the discussion please mute yourself if you are in a noisy area\, and remember to unmute yourself if you are speaking.

SUMMARY:Online Dharma Talk: Bonnie Sarmiento
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, August 5th\, Bonnie will give a dharma talk titled ” Relative and Ultimate Reality.” It  will be followed by an online discussion. In this talk\, Bonnie will explore the relationship between our sensory world and the universe\, between our egoic self and unlimited self\, and between our small mind and big mind. It is easy to feel trapped in the constraints of our bodies\, feeling separate from all that is. But in truth there is no static abiding self\, we are constantly in motion\, fluctuating and shifting both physically and in our conscious state of mind. Many of the problems we face today – wars\, racism\, men vs. women\, humanity vs. animals and plants\, the extinction of species\, and feelings of isolation all stem from an over identification with the the egoic self. Can we learn to see things beyond our physical senses\, and to be things beyond our physical bodies? When our physical self is in harmony with our multi-dimensional self\, we start to come into a life of balance.  \nPlease Join via Zoom:\nhttps://zoom.us/j/911714224 \nDuring the discussion please mute yourself if you are in a noisy area\, and remember to unmute yourself if you are speaking. The discussion will be recorded. \nKannon Do Wednesday Night Online Meditation Schedule (via Zoom) \nJoin via Zoom:\nhttps://zoom.us/j/911714224 \nOr dial by phone (audio only): \n+16699009128\,\,911714224# \n6:45pm – Online Meditation and Posture Instruction (optional\, recommended for first timers)\n7:10pm – Online Zazen Meditation (Please go on mute if in a noisy area)\n7:50pm – Loving Kindness Meditation\n7:55pm – Dharma Talk\n9:00pm – 9:30pm Online social hangout\, bring your own tea (optional)
